How nerdy are you?This week Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died. A whole generation of pasty dice-obsessed nerds owes him big time. Me included.
So, in his honour, how nerdy were you? Are you still sunlight-averse? What are the sad little things you do that nobody else understands?
As an example, a B3ta regular who shall remain nameless told us, "I spent an entire school summer holiday getting my BBC Model B computer to produce filthy stories from an extensive database of names, nouns, adjectives, stock phrases and deviant sexual practices. It revolutionised the porn magazine dirty letter writing industry for ever.
Revel in your own nerdiness.

Right then.How many of you remember the old Lone Wolf books? The young-adult novels that were similar to Fighting Fantasy, but had a consistent story you followed, playing as the eponymous "Lone Wolf"?
Well, a few years ago, Mongoose Publishing decided to revive the product line as a traditional D&D-style RPG. Guess who wrote the only published adventure for it?
That's right. Me. Beat that.
